This fine antique Moghan Kazak rug dates to 1870 in the Caucasian style, hand-knotted from wool. The piece displays a rich arrangement of geometric octagonal medallions, latch-hook borders, geometric diamonds, and star symbols rendered in natural shades of red, blue, cream, and ochre yellow. The pile exhibits light wear while remaining completely free of holes, showing authentic age across the patterned field and multiple decorative borders finished with fringed ends at the top and bottom. Measuring 138 cm by 232 cm, this textile works well in a gentleman's library or study placed in a light traffic area to protect the historic fibres. Homeowners can position the rug beneath a reading chair or beside a desk to bring traditional pattern and warmth to the interior flooring.

FAQs

Moghan Kazak rugs originate from the South Caucasus region, produced by nomadic and village weavers who incorporated geometric symbolism and vibrant regional dye traditions into their textiles.

These carpets are constructed using hand-spun wool for both the pile and foundation, woven with symmetrical double knots to create a dense, durable structure.

Authentic pieces feature wool warp and weft foundations, natural vegetable dye colour variations known as abrash, hand-bound selvedges, and bold geometric patterns such as latch-hooks and octagonal medallions.

Place the carpet over polished timber or stone flooring to anchor a seating area, allowing the rich primary tones to contrast against neutral upholstery and contemporary furniture.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar, rotate the rug annually to distribute foot traffic evenly, and employ specialist professional rug restorers for cleaning.
